SUBURBAN CONVERSION COMPANIES

In the mid 70's conversion firms started popping up and found mostly in the midwest United States. The conversion industry had grown to nearly 100 companies doing approximately
200,000 van and truck conversions per year. Conversion packages were most popular throughout the 80's and into the 90's.

As time went on and with the introduction of the SUV like the Ford Explorer in the early 90s, their popularity slowed down. Expensive paint jobs, high insurance premiums, scarcity of replacement parts were
some of the reasons expensive conversions packages became more rare. Conversions typically included features like captains chairs, custom interior fabrics, running boards, driving
and fog lights, push bumbers, bush guards, larger windows, upgraded rims, sun visors, raised roofs, custom paint jobs, custom stereos, interior lighting packages, cb radios, tvs, vcrs, added map lights, roof lights, oak accents, cup holders, consoles etc.
Usually these conversion packages would cost $7,000 to $10,000 and up.

Below is a list of conversion companies that I have found on the Internet that did conversions on Suburbans. Click on the company name to see Suburbans of various years between
1973 and 1991 that have had conversions done on them. If you know of a company not listed or of a Suburban that is not listed or if you have a Suburban you would like here,

VAN CONVERSION COMPANIES

Below is a list of VAN conversion companies that I have found that did conversions on vans not necessarily Suburbans but I'm investigating each company to see if they did Suburbans as well.
The list was found on www.v8van.com so full credit goes to those guys for all the hard work and research. They have listed the
companies by State and by city. Indiana, Michigan and Texas had the most number of conversion companies with Indiana being number one. Another extensive list of chevy van conversion
companies can be found on www.ChevyVanOnline.com.
